Bombing run overhaul - target only grayzone

(To be clear, I don’t know if this is good idea but it’s an idea.)

When you call in bombers, instead of selecting the target in the playable area (red+blue overlap), bombers automatically target the enemy spawn area similarly to how guerilla map access works (green areas).

Spawns themselves may or may not be included in the bombing pattern. That’s up to discussion and technical constrains.

Why:

  • 100% possible to counter
  • easy way to deal with gray zone campers
  • buffs bombing raids without increasing HE spam
  • makes more historical/military/irl sense

And once more, I don’t know if this is good idea but it’s an idea.

Would this system be combined with a Artillery and Bomber strike seperation (you can call in both at the same time)?

It really is strange that medium bombers would be engaging targets in the middle of a firefight with friendly forces, so the idea does have something going for it.

Yup. That’s what I thought when I come up with this.
